1t is always possible to identify a
young man that is badly in love.
Yesterday dapper youth with con-
siderable energy rushed into the post
Office vestibule and dropped hand
full of greeabacks into the letter box
and pocketed three letters that he
had in the other hand. He would
have let under the impression that
he put the letters in and pocketed the
money if l had not told him the diff
ference. l think it is dangerous fol
merchants to send these tizzle-sprune
young men to the postoffice, for hal
the time they don't know what they
doing.

J. ]. Kiley pleaded not guilty in violating
the sign ordinance, and had his case con-
tinued till August 10th. 1t is understood
that at that time General Clunie will be
present and defend Mr.. Kiley.
Louis Devinny forfeited his deposit,
ra'her than tell the Court why he carried

James Murphy. who was discharged on
Tuesday, was in the box again, and pleaded
for forgiveness for being drunk, ON the
ground that he had pain in his side. The
Court thought five days in a tank would
cure the pleurisy, and sent Murphy down
accordingly.
James McAllister wished TO be excused
from pleading because he suffered. He
had disturbed Mrs. aHanneman's peace
This lady was Intercepted by the Court,
and said Eli Mayo, who appeared as attor-
ney for McAllister, had been to see her, and
tried to induce her not to prosecute the
case, as she could not make anything by so
doing. Mr.. Mayo denied the statement
and characterized it as false. Itssis generally
understood that McAllister, better known
as Brock" had whipped his mother, and
made the premises uncomfortably warm
for the prosecuting witness. For lack of a
witness the case was continued one day.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
The announcement of the death and burial
of Algernon S. Sullivan, of New York city,
has sent through tho hearts of many, even
here, chill such as only sudden death can
inAict
This gentleman in life was the friend of
everyone who was right-rninded and honest
without regard to race, nationality or creed.
It was his pride and pleasure as a lawyer to
defend the right and he could not be retained
to defend the wrong, though he might make an
effort to palliate mistakes and accord to the
law it's demands discounted by mercy to one
who had without knowing it trespassed upon
its requirements.
We have known Mr.. Sullivan to refuse
large retainers when offered to defend pur-
posely wrong-dosrs and to serve innocent
wrong -doers without charge; we have known
him to answer his political friends no when he
thought the use of his name would lead con-
fiding friends to act directly contrary to
public interests In short, Algernen S. Sui
livan stood upon his own pedestal of right
and justice regardless of the rule of the
legal bar to take retainers and throw the
great power of his moral character and the
influence of his profession prestige into
cases where it would become necessary to
strive to make court swerve from its er-
mine purity or to SO bemuddle jury as to
close their eyes to the light of truth.
In this connection we may say that this de-
parted gentleman and able lawyer of New
York reminds US of the late Dennis Kimber-
ly of this city, who like Mr.. Sullivan embel-
lished the manhood of man in like manner
and left record behind him which is by his
surviving friends not only well remembered,
but will not be forgotten until they them
selves pass the rubicon of time.
It is public calamity to lose such men in
the midst of life and usefulness with no one
grown up and educated to take their place,
and the why is one of the unknown things
which burden our thought as We cast about
for successor.
As public administrator of the city of New
York he filed place and performed duty for
years and left the Office of choice rather than
embark in the thraldon of political methods
of advancing party interests and securing
wealth to himself.
No man was more gentle nor more firm,
and no lawyer was more believed in and be-
loved even by his opponents. Respect and
self-respect went hand in hand with his ele-
giant person wherever he went, and they will
meet a common grave when the earth shall
open to receive its treasure.
Though living in another State, it was our
good fortune to be a friend of his and client
as well, whereby we became acquainted with
one whose character shone in dark days, and
who never evadsd duty which conscience
and kind heart prompted him to perform.
His funeral will take place to-day, Thurs
day, at 10 q. m. at the First Presbyterian
church, corner of Eleventh street and Fifth
avenue New York. GoUvERNEUR.

CONSTITUTIONAL.

The prohibitionists are re- ejololng over the
decision of the Supreme court of the United
States in the Kansas cases. and they have
reason to, for the decision is very impor-
tant one for their purposes.
It was contended that while State could
regulate the sale of liquor without invading
the constitutional rights of the citizens, it
had not the right to prohibit any person
from manufacturing liquor for his own use
or for export; and that since many breweries
and other liquor manufactures had been
erected prior to the enactment of prohibitory
laws, and since such establishments would
become of no value as property, or be very
materially diminished in value if not en-
ploysd in the manufacturing of liquor, the
prohibition of such manufacture by the
State is IN effect taking of property for
public use without compensation and with
ont due process of law, and, therefore, IN
constitutional.
The court dealt thoroughly with these ar
guments. It holds concerning the right of
the State to prohibit manufacture that there
is no justification for the charge that in exer-
cising that power it is interfering with the
right of each citizen to manufacture intoxi-
eating liquors for his own use as beverage,
since such right does not inhere in citizeA-
ship. If State deems the absolute prohibi-
ton of the manufacture and sale, within her
limits, of Intoxicating liquors for other than
medical, scientific and manufacturing pur-
poses to be necessary to the peace and seeur-
ity of society, the courts cannot, without
usurping legislative functions, override the
will of the people as thus expressed by their
chosen representatives. And concerning inju-
ry to property it is held that all property under
our form of government is subject to the
obligation that it shall not be used 80 as to
affect injuriously the rights of the commu
nifty and thereby become a nuisance The
State of Kansas had right to prohibit the
liquor traffic. It did not thereby take away
the property of the brewers. It simply
abated nuisance. The property is not tax
en- away from it's owners; they are only pro-
hibited from using it for specific purpose
which the legislature declared to be injurious
to the community.
This is the law, but it will be hard to
make those whose property is affected by it
appreciate the fine points of the decision.
